START WAS MADE YESTERDAY Conatruction Engineer on Ground Op tioa on Land Said to Have Been Cloaed Men aad Material Due to Arrive- Safely Financial Commence Early. Tonight at midnight, the Whipple Clinton franchise from the City of As toria, for a gu, elect lie light and tele phone ytema under the letter of atip illation, must have expired had not ooiiielliing tangible been done to make the required showing act up in the or dinance granting it. Tlwt aumthing ha come to the front in oompoaite mid plausible alwpr, and the liklihood of a new system here seen to have color and robustness. The Astorin improvement Company, which is now in possesion of the fran-chiM-, ha, it seem contracted with the Acelyline Contracting Company, - of Minneapolis, for the installation of an ilimte ga-lighting plant here and Mr. T. V. Kiblw? the inn-lnicliiig en gineer of the Utter corporation, arrived in Astoria, on the noon expre, yester day, in company with Mr. Whipple the original donee of the franchiae fully prepared with plans, estimates, (peri- fii-atioiis and such other equipment aa is ncrsary for the immediate liegin- niug of preliminary work on the plant. The work will be located on land, IllOxAOO feet in dimensions, lying south of the I'n ion Oil Company' group of tanks on Astor street, upon which an option lis been held for some time by the AslorU Improvement Company and which was taken up yesterday and will be formally rlosed todar. Shipments of mnterial incident to the work Mi. h aa main and tools, are now i-ii roiile," and w ill arrive here simul taneously with tfie skilled lalair nece sary to give technic impetus to the work. Mr. Kihhce has already made definite arrangement with pertain leading bus iness houx-s foe the purchase of re- j ii j - it stores and supplies and is mak ing dilligeut inquiry on the score of available luhor here for the prompt prosecution of the work. Tho pi'ijii-ting .company will hold the electric lighting and telephone scr- in itls-yance until the new gas plant is fairly underway, and intends to iimke good on nil element of the om nibus privilege it holds from the city. Mr. Whipple is authority for- the statement that the whole business in cluded in the franchise is fullv finan- nl mid that hick of money will not stall the establishment of any phase of the work at anytime. A number of those resNiiisible for the money end of the enterprise have been here from time lo time, and have lent cordial endorse ment Iti that vijutuiaj ir subsequent Inmril meeting, where the success or failure of the scheme had to be di terniincd. The hypothesi offered by these facts i very promising, and the chances are, iiMin the present showing, that some thing will soon lie doing. Yet, it ii well never to la? too sanguine in mat lets of this sort, for far more flattering ciivum-'tiiiicea than these have been known to come to naught, and only enough real work done to save fran chises from lapsing, and years frittered away in dealing and counter-dealing, the finality rinding expression in a wieugre and liarely-wrought fulllllmetit of franchise requirement. It is not inferred that the present case will eventuate in any such way. indeed, the public hope is aroused in a vei-y distinct way, for something good and radical and substantial, and the Joubt is interjected only because tt has Ihmmi so often justified. Mr. Kihbeo has just completed Ihe full equipment of the greatest known Aeetyline plant in use anywhere, at Yukimn, Wmshington, and tlie people there arc delighted with its service, and he may duplicate tho success here, if not the scope of the insinuation, Tho franchise .requires the expendi ture of $40,000 within the ensuing six months by its hetiellciariea, and it ii snid they will expend $(10,000.
